    Thank you very much for the article, I will keep in mind.
  2. Veronica
    I don’t use such tools at all, since I don’t need it. The tan itself "sticks" quite well. Only after sunburn I get sunburns, then I start to process them with panthenol spray. I always take this spray with me to rest, there are dexpanthenol in its composition, and it heals burns well, including sunburns. By the way, always take with a smiley, the original spray, which is produced in Europe.
  3. Irina
    And I take with me on vacation and in the summer I use the means Dry Dry Sun Care. It has a convenient package - it fits even in a pocket and protects well from harmful sunshine.
